Tools, Accessories, etc.
The following items are necessary for
operating the engine.
1–Fuel
Model glow plug engine fuel of good quality,
preferably containing a small percentage of
nitro methane.
2–Glow Plug
O.S. No. 8 glow plug is fitted to the engine.
3–Propeller
Suggested sizes are 9x7, 9x8, 10x5, 10x6,
10x7, 11x5, 11x6.
4–Glow Plug Battery
The power source for heating the glow plug
may be either a large heavy-duty 1.5-volt
dry cell, or preferably, a 2-volt rechargeable
lead-acid cell.
Warning (Very hot): Never touch the
nichrome wire while the battery is
connected.
5–Battery Leads
These are used to conduct current from the
battery to the glow plug. Basically, two
leads, with clips, are required, but, for
greater convenience, twin leads with
special glow plug connectors are
commercially available.
6–Fuel Tank
For installation in the model, a 300cc
(10.6oz.) for 46 FXi is suggested.
7–Fuel Bottle or Pump
For filling the fuel tank, a simple,
polyethylene "squeeze" bottle, with a
suitable spout is all that is required.
Alternatively, one of the purpose-made
manual or electric fuel pumps may be used
